Artist of the Month: Marc Silvestri
Posted on September 2, 2010 | 3 CommentsMany comic fans may know Marc Silvestri from his days as one of the seven co-founders of Image Comics or from his current role as CEO of Top Cow Productions, but his professional career in comics has spanned nearly three decades. His creative portfolio includes... -
Artist of the Month: Evan Dorkin
Posted on May 15, 2010 | 9 CommentsMay’s Artist of the Month is none other than Eisner Award winning artist Evan Dorkin! Throughout his professional career in comics, which spans close to three decades, Evan has often lampooned fandom and pop-culture, only to be embraced by both. Although ComicAttack.net is honoring Evan for his talents as an illustrator, don’t... -
Wacky Comic Wednesday: Obnoxio The Clown Vs. The X-Men
Posted on April 14, 2010 | 4 CommentsObnoxio The Clown Vs. The X-Men may sound like an obscure Italian film, but it’s actually a one-shot comic that was published by Marvel Comics in 1983. It was written and illustrated by Alan Kupperberg, who had previously worked on high profile titles for Marvel such as The... -
Wacky Comic Wednesday: Jell-O Man Part 3, Ads & Games
Posted on March 31, 2010 | 6 CommentsNow, for the thrilling conclusion to Wacky Comic Wednesday’s look at Jell-O Man & Wobbly! Although the entire comic is nothing more than a thinly veiled advertisement for Jell-O products, it’s jam-packed with recipes, games, and special offers that are less covert in plugging the product. The entire... -
Nostalgia Comic Review: Inhumanoids #3
Posted on March 25, 2010 | 7 CommentsThe Inhumanoids pretty much personified my adolescent lust for toys that my Mom couldn’t afford. These massive hunks of plastic towered above my largest toy at the time, which was the Rancor from Kenner’s Star Wars line. As a child the Inhumanoids cartoon absolutely blew me away! I remember... -
Wacky Comic Wednesday: Jell-O Man Part 2, Dinosaurs & Aliens
Posted on March 24, 2010 | 7 CommentsWelcome back for part two of Wacky Comic Wednesday‘s look at Jell-O Man and Wobbly! In part one, I covered the insane origin of this gelatinous duo. Now, it’s time for a galaxy spanning synopsis of the heroes’ first two adventures. I’ll start here on Earth,... -
Unsung Characters of Comicdom: Saguarrior
Posted on March 19, 2010 | 6 CommentsSaguarrior #0 (pronounced Sah-warrior) was published by LoS Comics in 1997.

Wacky Comic Wednesday: Jell-O Man Part 1, The Origin
Posted on March 17, 2010 | 8 CommentsThere’s always room for Jell-O! It’s as true today as it was when Kraft Food Company adopted the slogan in 1964 to promote a variety of delicious gelatinous desserts. Although millions of people continue to slide loads of this patented sugary gelatin down their gullets each... -
Artist of the Month: T. Motley
Posted on March 14, 2010 | 6 CommentsI discovered Tom Motley’s artwork while doing research for an entry into Comic Attack’s Unsung Characters of Comicdom column.

Wacky Comic Wednesday: Popples #2
Posted on March 10, 2010 | 8 CommentsPopples were a part of the cultural phenomenon that was synonymous with the numerous toy crazes of the eighties. If you didn’t own one, you knew someone who did. My older sister had a Popple that I wasn’t allowed to play with, and my Dad... -
Wacky Comic Wednesday: Stone Protectors
Posted on March 3, 2010 | 7 CommentsThe Stone Protectors comic is an anomaly to say the least. There’s nothing odd about a comic book marketing toys to children, but this comic was a whore in the red-light district of toy merchandising. This team of roided-out trolls were a strange fusion of early-nineties preteen pop-culture that... -

Unsung Characters of Comicdom: Megalith
Posted on February 5, 2010 | 4 CommentsMegalith is the second best character that Neal Adams has ever created, falling slightly behind Skate-Man for the top slot. Neal’s artwork and stories have always held a special place in my heart, and this comic is no exception. I first read Revengers #1 when... -
Unsung Characters of Comicdom: Steel Pulse
Posted on January 30, 2010 | 9 CommentsDanger, excitement, action, victory, violence, humiliation, and mysterious villains! Do I have your attention yet? Well, all of those words grace the cover of Steel Pulse #1, and when I saw them, they grabbed my attention immediately. After reading this comic, I knew I wanted... -

Posted on January 15, 2010 | 4 CommentsIn February of 1928, HP Lovecraft penned a tale that was published in a pulp magazine called Weird Tales.

Unsung Characters of Comicdom: Deathmark
Posted on January 8, 2010 | 5 CommentsThis week’s profile is dedicated to a Deadpool/ Punisher hybrid who rocks an insulated black unitard. He’s faster than a coffee-weaned feral kitten, has more agility than a cybernetic spider-monkey, and is more deadly than an anthropomorphic dolphin shooting lasers from its blowhole. Wielding duel samurai... -

Posted on December 21, 2009 | 4 CommentsBubba: The Redneck Werewolf was produced by a publisher in Orlando, Florida called Brass Ball Press (with a monkey straddling a giant brass ball as an emblem). This definitely earns them the award for best publishing company name and logo ever! If you’ve had the pleasure... -
Artist of the Month: Jon Ascher
Posted on December 15, 2009 | 4 CommentsI was first introduced to Jon Ascher’s artwork when I read a preview of his first graphic novel, Neil: An Existential Crisis.

Unsung Characters of Comicdom: Titan
Posted on December 9, 2009 | 4 CommentsWhat do you get when you mix He-Man’s body with Eddie Munster’s hair, slap on a van dyke, and dress him in an American Apparel unisex V-neck? Titan, that’s what! Titan comics were created by John Jordan and published by Nashville, Tennessee’s own Music City... -
Unsung Characters of Comicdom: The Thespian
Posted on December 3, 2009 | 7 CommentsHave you ever wondered what would happen if you mixed a Kabuki warrior, a lucha libre wrestler, and a Victorian musketeer? Well, neither have I, but The Thespian nipped any future curiosities I might have in the bud. He’s an amalgam of all these archetypes, mingled with... -

Artist of the Month: Jeff Wilson
Posted on November 11, 2009 | 4 CommentsIn the current economic climate, everyone could use a few more ‘dead presidents.’ So, if you’re not receiving a chunk of cash via a stimulus check, may I suggest some ‘not-so-dead presidents’ to get you through the recession? Jeff Wilson is the illustrator of Robot... -

Unsung Characters of Comicdom: Skate-Man
Posted on October 28, 2009 | 6 CommentsSimply put, Skate-Man #1 is the greatest work Neal Adams ever committed to paper. It was created, written, and illustrated by Adams and was published by Pacific Comics in 1983. Skate-Man is a masterwork of beauty and ridiculousness that doesn’t disappoint on any level. The... -
Space Ace #1: How Does it Compare to the 1984 Game and Cartoon?
Posted on October 25, 2009 | 6 CommentsI had no intent of reviewing Space Ace #1, but after reading this book, I decided to share my thoughts. I don’t usually buy new comics, but in this case, I made an exception. I’m a fan of the Space Ace properties, Don Bluth’s animations,... -

Nostalgia Comic Review: Silver Hawks #1
Posted on October 17, 2009 | 10 CommentsFor the most part, I enjoy reading well written comics that utilize the medium for all it’s worth. Although I love these types of stories, it can be exhausting at times. Especially if it’s been a long day and I’m just looking for some good... -
